- Emergency personnel responded in Greenville on Sunday afternoon to a 911 call about a reported cardiac arrest.
- Panettiere was found inside an apartment; resuscitation attempts failed, and she was pronounced dead about half an hour after the call.
- An autopsy performed Monday found no signs of trauma that contributed to her death, while the cause and manner of death remain pending additional testing.
- Panettiere was best known for roles in “Heroes” and “Nashville,” and she had an 11-year-old daughter.
It is with profound sadness that we share the tragic passing of our beloved Hayden. She was an incredible light and a force of nature who brought immeasurable love and joy to all who knew her — and to the millions who watched her onscreen.— Skip Panettiere said in a statement shared by her representative.
